HOW IS PRACTICE FUSION DIFFERENT FROM OTHER EHRS?

The most obvious difference between Practice Fusion and its competitors is the cost. Practice Fusion is a free EHR that operates under a business model that generates revenue through advertising dollars as opposed to the tradition Software as a Service (SaaS) model.

UPDATE: Practice Fusion now charges for their software.

PRACTICE FUSION START-UP TIME

With no software to install since it is in the cloud, Practice Fusion claims it can be set up in 5 minutes to test out. It is recommended to run it alongside your current system while you test it before making the switch. This will allow you some flexibility to see if the Practice Fusion is the right EHR for your practice.

Once your practice decides to use Practice Fusion EHR, the set-up time is promoted to be less than 30 days.1
